Radar Signal Tube II

Radar Signal Tube II

The Radar Signal Tube is a retroreflector consisting of three polyhedral reflectors. The reflector consisting of eight mutually perpendicular, intersecting flat surfaces, which reflects electromagnetic waves back towards the source.
The Radar Signal Tube can be used on boat, life raft, or man over board as a buoyancy aid too, and requires no power supply. The unique Radar Signal Tube is an essential piece of rescue equipment for all those who travel, work, enjoy and explore the great outdoors...

ISO 8729
The maximum echoing area of the radar reflector shall be at least 10 m2.
Its azimuthal polar diagrams shall be such that its response over a total angle of 240¡ã is
not less than 2,5 m2. The response shall not remain below this level over any single angle
of more than 10¡ã.
The performance of the reflector, up to at least ¡À 15¡ãfrom the horizontal shall be such
that its response at any inclination remains above 0,625 m2 over a total angle of at least
240¡ã.
